Dear Experts
We have filed a service tax return on 25th April 2011 for Oct. to Mar.2011. We paid the tax for the same on 19th April 2011 with late payment interest @13%. Again on 22nd July we filed a revised return as some liability occurred due to less payment made in April 11. But we made a payment of interest @13% & from 1st April 2011 interest rate has been changed, now it is @ 18%. Pa.

Sir my query is, we are paying difference amount of interest but can it be possible to file a revised return again after 90 days from the date of filing of first (original) return. Because 90 days limit was crossed on yesterday only.

Please help me out.

With Regards
Anil

Any case laws to substantiate my case ?

Dear Freinds, I have one querry. Suppose, two different entities (Pvt. Ltd. Co.)being controlled by common directors,are having their Administrative office in one place. The office relating expenses such as office rent, telephone, maintenance expenses etc. are being accounted in one Pvt. ltd. co's books but subsequently shared proportionately among the above said entities. Whether the sharing of expenses i.e.transfer of proportionate expenses to second co. shall be liable for service tax. The axenanotification no. 19/2008 dated 10.05.2008 may also be considered for deciding the facts.

So is there any circular or Notification regarding No Need of Issuance of such Certificate for participating in Open Tender.
